The Houthis, an arm of the Iranian Ayatollah, has seen their airport hit by Israel. The United States got into the fray by raining missiles, bombs and other armaments from their airforce. In all 50 aircraft participated in the carpet bombing. Such a disaster to them they sent a message to Trump, stop the strikes on Houthis in Yemen and we will not attack your ships in the Red Sea.

CNN — 

President Donald Trump announced Tuesday that the US would “stop the bombings” against the Iran-backed Houthi rebel group in Yemen, after the Houthis told the US that “they don’t want to fight anymore.”

“We will honor that, and we will stop the bombings,” Trump said from the Oval Office, sitting next to Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney. He was referring to the military campaign the US has been carrying out against the Houthis since mid-March in response to the group’s attacks on shipping lanes in the Red Sea and on Israel.

“They have capitulated, but more importantly, we will take their word … they say they will not be blowing up ships anymore,” Trump

A defense official confirmed to CNN that the US military had been instructed on Monday night to stand down on the strikes against the Houthis.

“Following recent discussions and contacts conducted by the Sultanate of Oman with the United States and the relevant authorities in Sana’a, in the Republic of Yemen, with the aim of de-escalation, efforts have resulted in a ceasefire agreement between the two sides,” Omani Foreign Minister Badr Albusaidi said on X.

In his remarks in the Oval Office, Trump instructed his secretary of state and interim national security adviser, Marco Rubio, to “let everybody know.” Rubio described the understanding as “an important development.”

“This was always a freedom of navigation issue. These are a band of individuals with advanced weaponry that were threatening global shipping, and the job was to get that to stop,” Rubio said.

However, during all this turmoil, the Houthis have not left Israel off the hook. So as night comes after day, they will continue to rain down on Israel. We await the next phase where Israel has no option but to take out the Houthis for good.
